Too Much Water Feb 2009 10:32am, 26 Feb 2009 1,162 posts	Quote Pin Too Much Water Anna, read my mates report on the Lakeland 50 route27.co.uk Sounds great!
flanker Feb 2009 11:09am, 26 Feb 2009 9,986 posts	Quote Pin flanker Anna, I have been considering both the 50 and the 100 for the last couple of years. But i think I'm going to do the Across Wales again instead of the 50 this year. The 100 next year is defintely being considered.
Anna Finn Feb 2009 11:48am, 26 Feb 2009 334 posts	Quote Pin Anna Finn Excellent TMW. Are you doing it then? Looks like we could get a few fetchies there this year and next...
Anna Finn Feb 2009 11:48am, 26 Feb 2009 335 posts	Quote Pin Anna Finn By the way, they mention that it would be good to have GPS for finding the route (Lakes, not Ridgeway). Any recommendations?
flanker Feb 2009 11:57am, 26 Feb 2009 9,987 posts	Quote Pin flanker garmin etrex vista HCx would be the one I'd conisder unless I could afford the expensive mapping ones such as the garmin Oregon Series or the SatMap10
Too Much Water Feb 2009 1:17pm, 26 Feb 2009 1,163 posts	Quote Pin Too Much Water probably not Anna, I will most likely be recovering from GUC. I don't think I will have enough time to recce it anyway (my mate's report highlights the importance of recceing it)
Anna Finn Feb 2009 4:26pm, 26 Feb 2009 338 posts	Quote Pin Anna Finn Ah, the recce's something I hadn't considered fully TMW. How's the training going for GUC? That's sort of tentatively on my future to-do list. Thanks for the Garmin suggestions flanker. Payday tomorrow so I might do a fair bit of ultra shopping this weekend!
Anna Finn Feb 2009 7:48pm, 26 Feb 2009 339 posts	Quote Pin Anna Finn With regards to Garmins, am I right in thinking that you can tell the garmin your route before you go and it will give directions? Do ultra organisers send something that you download and put onto the garmin? I'm a bit new to this new-fangled mapping technology stuff.
Nightjar Feb 2009 7:54pm, 26 Feb 2009 2,122 posts	Quote Pin Nightjar I plotted the ridgeway and loaded it onto 3 Garmins last year. Works a treat provided you remember to look at it.
Anna Finn Feb 2009 7:59pm, 26 Feb 2009 340 posts	Quote Pin Anna Finn Why 3?!! (And which 3 of course?)
